Reported Data

The current study investigated resilience factors influencing the associations between binge drinking and measures of educational participation among Canadian youth. Self-reported data were collected during the 2016/2017 school year from 5238 students in Grades 9 through 12 (2744 females, 2494 males) attending 14 secondary schools in Ontario and British Columbia as part of the COMPASS study. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine relationships between binge drinking, school connectedness and flourishing on measures of educational participation. Binge drinking was associated with increased likelihood of skipping classes, going to class without completing homework, lower Math and English scores, and having educational and/or training expectations and aspirations beyond high school only. Decreased flourishing was linked to increased likelihood of going to class with incomplete homework, lower Math and English scores, and decreased likelihood of aspiring and expecting to achieve education and/or training beyond high school only. Increased school connectedness was associated with decreased likelihood of skipping classes and going to class with incomplete homework, higher Math and English scores, and increased the likelihood of aspiring to and expecting to achieve education and/or training beyond high school only. Lower flourishing was additive in its effect on current binge drinking in negatively impacting class attendance and homework completion and academic performance, while higher school connectedness was compensatory in its effect on these outcomes. This study suggests that, for high school students who are susceptible to binge drinking, those who are more connected to school and have a higher sense of wellbeing can maintain active participation in school and achieve their educational goals.

Teaching Time

The rank-order of importance of a set of educational goals to a sample of 134 adult high school students, composed of com pleters and dropouts, was assessed by 22 teachers of adults to determine how perceptive they were of the differences that exist between completer's and dropout's reasons for enrolling in adult education. Significantly strong associations were observed in the ways teachers and completers assessed the importance of the goals (rho=.78, df=9, p<.01) and the ways teachers and dropouts assessed the importance of the goals (rho=.65, df=9, p<.05). However, marked differences were observed within sets of ranks indicating that teachers and students had significantly different view-points concerning the importance of some of the goals to completers and dropouts. When length of teaching time was con trolled, experienced teachers were found more likely to misjudge the importance of the overall set of goals to the dropouts (rho=.57, NS).

Descriptive Method

This article we made with the title of the influence of the completeness of educational facilities and infrastructure on the learning outcomes of vocational high school students. Our problem discussed in this article is whether the completeness of educational facilities and infrastructure for the learning outcomes of vocational high school students. Because as we know that standard education facilities and infrastructure is an effort to support learning results in school. The teacher must pay attention to the use of facilities and infrastructure that will be carried out useful in learning activities, and the use of facilities and infrastructure can be effective and efficiently according to educational goals. Completeness of facilities and infrastructure in a school very much influence on learning outcomes and support student learning. Because if a schools have good and adequate facilities and infrastructure so student learning will also run effectively and efficiently.

College Going

This study investigated the contributions of academic performance and college-going support and barriers in predicting college-going self-efficacy and educational goals among Latina/Latino high school students. Concerns regarding assessment and measurement issues in prior research were addressed. Findings suggested that grade point average was the most important contributor of both college-going self-efficacy and educational goals. In addition, college-going support from family moderated the relationship between grade point average and college-going self-efficacy, such that for students with a high grade point average, high levels of support were related to higher self-efficacy, while students with a high grade point average but lower support had lower self-efficacy. Levels of family support were less important with regard to efficacy and goals for students with a lower grade point average, who tended to have low college-going self-efficacy. The implications of these findings are discussed and recommendations for future research and practice are provided.
